The Swon Brothers are beyond happy to have landed a spot on the tour. Zach Swon started playing electric guitar at age 15, and Zach spent hours learning to play Brad’s songs like “Mud on the Tires” and “I’m Gonna Miss Her.”

On his 18th birthday, Zach’s father surprised him onstage with a pink paisley Telecaster guitar to celebrate the occasion. Even though Zach doesn’t play that guitar in public anymore, it still holds a special place in his life.

“I do have it hanging on my wall, ’cause it means so much to me,” Zach explains. “So, now I’m hoping when we go on tour with Brad, I can tell him the story and maybe he can write me a little note, and it means more on the wall.”
